than marketers in other industries to make complaining easy
and acceptable.
Health care organizations should encourage its employees,
their spouse to become involved in community and
neighborhood groups to educate them on what to say when
they get their, in hope that a source of word of mouth
communication is listening.
Word of mouth communication not only increases
awareness and knowledge, but it also persuades and lead to
action, such as actually choosing the provider one has heard
about.

Fortis was the first hospital to organize an exhibition in the National Capital Region,
wherein the general public could visit all departments of the hospital and get
answers from experts. Secondly, Fortis launched a dialysis technician program for
women from the weaker section of society in which they were given free training by

where consultants charge Rs 100 only. Internally, they have patient co-ordinators,
counsellors, ward in-charge etc to take care of all need of patients. There’s also a
system of taking feedback from patients and visitors.
